Tyler Benson with Hall Estill recently represented me in a custody contempt case against my ex-husband. Throughout the entire process Tyler and his team were communicative, professional and extremely empathetic. Tyler coordinated with the opposing party's attorney and the ad litem in my case, advising me of my available options based on this discourse and the circumstances that were given. Me and my ex were able to come to an agreement to present the judge before the final hearing that I feel was fair to all parties, thanks in no small way due to Tyler's diligence and attention to detail in my case. Thank you Tyler, Molly and everyone at Hall Estill for being in my corner!

While managing Bentonville Plaza, I was directed by the building ownership to retain Mr. Rhoads as counsel for the property on several occassions, ranging from assisting the ownership to protest an over-tax assessment to pursuing rent collection on an international company. Mr. Rhoads exceeded our expectations on each and every assignment. As a certified property manager and a broker, I interact with lawyers regulary; and in my opinion, Mr. Rhoads stands out in a class all to himself. In a word, outstanding!

We hired Marti initially to facilitate an adoption with a potential birth mom. The birth mom didn't speak English, and during our first meeting, all the red flags went off for us. Marti didn't provide an interpreter, so we had no idea how the birth mom felt about us or what was happening. We later discovered that specific details Marti included in our contract were completely false, including the expected date of birth and gender of the child. We were frantic trying to correct the errors and make adjustments in time, as well as confirm the birth mom was even comfortable placing her child with us. We ended up firing Marti and hiring a new attorney, and we were very glad we did.

James Hornsey represented me in my divorce and he was extremely knowledgeable. I honestly would be very afraid to be on the team opposing him, since he is seriously tough as nails when it comes to knowing the law and defending your rights. I was amazed, just when I thought he had pulled out all of his cards in our case, he pulled out even more and it was just a wipeout for the other side and their lies and things they had pulled. I thank God I had his as my attorney or things would not have been so great for me since the other side was playing not-so-nice.

I hired Charles (Chuck) to deal with a speeding ticket I received in Lakeview Arkansas. The town is a bit of a speed trap and has very few residents, but can pay quite a bit for their police vehicles it seems. Regardless, I was speeding and given a ticket. I contacted Chuck to handle my case and he did a great job. The City of Lakeview was very non-responsive so when it came down to a court date he listened to my concerns and drove there to the clerk's office in the small town of Lakeview to try and correct the problem. At that point, they were even saying I was failing to appear at court after he had mailed them and been trying to contact them. The City of Lakeview should be ashamed for being unprofessional and not following the legal process as they should be. Chuck got the case taken of and I'd hire him again if I ever ran into a legal issue in Arkansas. A+

I gave him money to start paperwork for an emergency custody hearing, and still will not return my calls or emails. (This has been more than 6 months) His phone was even been disconnected for a short time and I assumed he disappeared and still no response!!! He also filed paperwork with the court for contempt against my ex-husband for non payment and he never followed up with that case either!!! Why aren't more people upset?!?!?!

My wife and I were basically thrown into his lap by default. This is one of the best things that ever happened to us. If you can go through life never needing a attorney that's great. If you find yourself in need, Charles R Chadwick has been a GREAT family lawyer for us. He has proven to be a powerful litigator, balanced with a likability in court which in our experience wins cases!!! The last time we were in court ( 7/22/2013 ) with Charles, the Defendant told us the only reason we won was because, quote ... "You had a better attorney". Indeed !!!

Unprofessional, quits when confronted with mistakes. Make sure you have an outside attorney review everything before you sign it. And make sure its what you wanted and it's complete ours was not . Thankfully, we caught it but after notifying Isabelle in writing she told us she fixed it. We get it home read it wasn't fixed. Notified her again it wasn't fixed and she wakes us up with certified letter that she quits. We gotta pay an attorney to clean up her mess. She kept our money. We paid for an unfinished imperfect document . Be Careful, distracted,unfocused attorneys will make excuses not changes.

When I pulled my score it was below average. I had $12,000 student loan, some credit card debt, charge off and an eviction.

I read both reviews of this attorney and from my experience, I agree with the fact that this attorney can't argue her way out of a paper sack. She is disorganized, weak in her approach, far too reactionary, and does more to tear families apart than bring them together. Be careful with this one and if you hire her, please know you've been made aware ahead of time. Don't take a risk on this one. There are far better attorneys.
